I saw the fish truck stocking the DH today I didn't know this thread was still active and it has been a while since I checked it.A few fish are in the head of lake it shouldn't be long before they start their run up the creek

For any of you who may be interested, this moon phase, high water and cold should have the run in full swing. I have not fished it in two years now, so can't say whether there are many fish up there. I bet there will be some, as it was slow in 2010 and 2011. These things seem to be somewhat cyclical. I know there has been talk of otters as well at the mouth of the creek... I do hope to get over some this winter, and typically I have not seen fish before Thanksgiving. With the DH situation now in place there should be plenty of fish to keep your attention even if the Lakers are scarce. I thought that all six miles of Big Snowbird was now DH from October to May, but it is evidently the 2.8 miles from the Junction (end of road) to a concrete bridge that crosses the creek about 2 miles up from the confluence of Little and Big Snowbirds.

If anyone goes a brief report would be great!
Tight lines,

Hey John - long time no talk to. I mentioned your name on a recent duck hunt with Duffey. If you get to fishing at the cabin, post a report or two.

Mark, I missed this, or I no longer get notification when someone posts? Hope you've been well by the way. I only got over to fish the run once last winter. With that said, I managed one lake run fish. It's been so long since I posted here I can't remember how! One decent chromer, 15-16", think it was my very first cast? . I did catch several young ones too, so that bodes well for the future. Maybe this winter we can hit it?
Hope all are well,
John
